If you miss Kara, I cannot recommend the podcast “Keep It!” enough. She’s one of the co-hosts, and it’s excellent, and Kara even issued a Shade Court ruling in an episode.

XXXTentacion’s glorification is so upsetting. People are making him out to be this generation’s ~Tupac~ (lest not forget Tupac was on trial for sexually abusing a fan prior to his death). Everyone is problematic..

The hell you say! I thought for sure he’d turn over a new leaf after the other half-a-dozen arrests for the same damn thing...

I second that sentiment wholeheartedly. This quote tells me everything I need to know about him.

That’s what happens when you're desperate for people to like you at any cost. 

Perhaps it’s not fair to expect Tamblyn to speak up about Barnes and Lysette’s accusations.

I saw the picture, and was happy in that moment in assuming they’d broken up.

The other day someone asked me what advice i would give their 25 year old daughter who had just been devastated by her boyfriends actions. I told them that she needs to recognize the red flag now. If he is acting this way only a few weeks into a relationship - its likely that this is who he is not “oh he is under…

I get the exhaustion though. I do. Whenever I feel something, it’s not enough for me to say it. I have to convince my parents and (later) my husband that it’s true. All of them, by the way, have labeled me melodramatic. It’s never the case they’re blowing me off when I say how I feel in the first place.

I’m in a relationship with someone who is 4 years younger than me (he’s 29, I’m 33), and when we first started dating, we definitely had many a difficult conversation re: race (he’s white, I’m Latinx) and stuff related to #MeToo before #MeToo was a movement. Even those who profess wokeness tend not to fully understand…

While I do think it’s right to expect an activist like Tamblyn to be talking to her husband when he fucks up, I also don’t think we should expect her to be able to perform the miracle of being able to transform her oaf into someone properly woke or to air their marital disputes on these issues in public.

And that is a bad thing because.......

Hetero here who treats my pets like children. Dont see what the big deal is. 

“Life partner.”

Please do not start this conversation that inevitably leads to people getting dirty with the stigmatism surrounding BPD again...

What I do know is they jetted off to Sag Harbor shortly thereafter

Agreed, many thanks to the competent and insightful writers at GMG who will be leaving us. Unfortunately, since HamNo seems to be completely unemployable outside of a blog where he gets to relive his college coffee house rant days over and over again, we’re still stuck with him and a couple other “revolutionaries” who…

Elections have consequences, and the Supreme Court is a big one. I seriously don’t want to hear Jill Stein voters or people claiming HRC was the same as Trump whining about this. You contributed to this result.

This is what complacency looks like  ... we’re paying the price for decades to come...
